I need more playtime in my life. I sometimes think that I'm working myself too hard between school and work..but at the same time I know it's what I have to do in order to save up money and move out by June and be completely independent from my parents like I plan. Saving money is going pretty well. I've saved up around 600 dollars so far but I know I'll need a lot more to feel stable considering the price of rent, plus what i'll have to pay for cable, internet, cellphone etc. I'm sure my parents will help me out when I need it, but I hate asking them for help. I think after I get everything straightened out (finish my finals, get my license, get a car, get my own place, etc) I'll feel a lot better about where I am in life at this moment, although at the moment I'm rather content. I feel like I've matured a lot recently..Sometimes I feel a lot older than 19. Then other times I feel like I'm still 16. Where did all of my teenage years go? they seemed to have gone by so quickly and a lot of them are a blur. Yet I have no regrets. I can't look back at it all and want to change a thing. Ive been a good friend, stayed true to myself, and when i wasn't, learned from my mistakes. I never gave up..and that's all you can do.

On another note, I thought this quiz was rather accurate. so I decided to post it.
